ISIS was falling apart well before then, they didn't have the capacity to sustain a state, and their extremist ideology turned people off.

You seem mildly unwilling to give him any credit, but I’ll move on. What about your comment re African Americans? Will you provide an instance when he uses them as “boogeymen”?

Sure, the 2016 election scaremongering about crime and the rhetorical battles with athletes. Fairly weak tea, but that's because I think white people aren't nearly as scared of black people as they were in, say, 1968.

Scaremongering = criticizing Chicago, I assume? I’m frankly surprised anyone is left to defend that city’s statistics. The nfl kneeling scandal is also legitimate to criticize without being “racist”, but I understand why that doesn’t fit the narrative.

Not just Chicago, but his whole acceptance speech in 2016. And the NFL thing is just a way to slap-fight with black activists. It's dumb, but it gets people exercised.

(2/2) at least someone fights back against them and their hateful antics.

Great point, Noah. Our country is threatened by many things which is why we have a government in the first place. Couldn’t agree more.

No, not our country. You, personally. You feel threatened by black activists, immigrants, ISIS, etc. I do not. I am not worried about those things. I am worried about getting hit by cars, and my rabbit getting into fights with other rabbits.

Nothing to fear about black activists, unless you think racism is a big issue. I never said anything about immigrants, but I’m curious how a caravan of people coming into the country unchecked would provide value. And I haven’t been afraid of isis since 1/24/17

OK OK. :-) But you were going pretty hard against black activists just a minute ago, calling them "racists" and such, and expressing joy that Trump is willing to fight them.
